You have asked me to record a video about singing on piano, so I decided to share with you my thoughts about mastering beautiful singing tone and phrasing and the legato playing. I hope you will find it useful.

All teachers should be teaching this ability from early years, but most do not--they simply say "Try to make it sing more...". Your video is so very, very helpful--I can't thank you enough for explaining this so well!
Thank you so much!
Amazing video, short in length, but one of the most profound and useful for all pianists in the world, including professionals and concert pianists!
Thank you Carlos!
Wow, what an absolutely passionate Music Professor you are! I can feel your deep love for the piano and the focus on playing beautifully. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. From Australia.
Thank you very much for the video! Very high quality and very helpful! It's short and to the point. I watched again and again.
I'm so happy to hear that! Thanks!
You are most correct, Tone is as *important as Hanon* and this video ties in beautifully with the chapter I'm reading from the book The Soprano on her Head by Eloise Ristad. She talks exactly about this concept. The example of you holding your left hand up and finding those tones is an excellent tip. Perfectly shaped tones is truly what improves your sound. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this enriching comment!
Maybe you should discuss, how to reduce the hammer 'bump' that occurs momentarily with each note. That would be interesting! I am 67 years playing and still performing and I so miss the understanding of removing (as much as possible) the percussive action of the piano in order to make it sing.
Ok!
Te Pana, Maestro, wykłady są dla laika czymś niesamowitym. To jak magia
Thank you, you are so inspiring. I can’t wait to try this & show your video to my students 😊
I hope it will help!
Love this! A very difficult concept to grasp as I’ve heard my teachers over the years ask me to play like this but without being able to explain it very well. I look forward to trying this out in my next piano lesson. Thank you Greg!
All perfectly explained. Of course, where and how much to put the crescendoes (and diminuendoes) is at times a matter of interpretation - just as a singer might crescendo or sing softly, unexpectedly, for a telling effect.
Yes, that's absolutely true
Sir, admittedly I've been inspired by the way you approach music. Especially with this video I got thrilled as I'm an amateur soprano singer! Thank you ever so much!
I'm so happy to hear that from the singer!!!!
This is a really first-class video. Something for every pianist, however skilled (or in my case, lacking in skill!). One simple idea, beautifully presented and, above all, not too long. For a moment I was afraid we were going to hear YOU sing 😅🤣🤣😂!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the tutorial! Definitely something I'll be trying with my Romantic pieces.
You used my favorite nocturne! Thanks
Good to see you on my screen this morning.
Love this piece so much, thank you so much
very useful. Always love your videos. It will take me time to study all your videos. I am a piano teacher. Thank you for all your tips and videos. That will be very benefit to people who likes to play better on piano. Many of my local piano teachers do not know / do not teach about touchings, etc. It's really sad to see this.
Thank you for being here! Enjoy my content! All the best. GN
Love your videos, I'm your fan #1
Thank you!!! Where are you from?
thank you so much Grzegorz ! very helpful advices :)
Beautiful
Thanks, i love you, I am from Peru, my English is so so, thanks for sub in Spanish ❤
Bienvenido! Yo hablo español! Amo Perú! He tocado muchos conciertos allí!
such a helpful video! thanks greg!
Super inspiring, thank you!
I am convinced that if Chopin had lived into his 40s, 50s 60s etc., he would have written operas 😢 . Thank you!
It is possible, but only if he had learned how to write to orchestra.
Bardzo cenna lekcja. Dziękuję.
Bardzo użyteczny materiał, gdyż właśnie teraz ćwiczę Mazurka D-dur Op. 33 Nr 3, który tej śpiewności wymaga, więc materiał na pewno mi się przyda. Dziękuję Panie Grzegorzu! 😀
Dziękuję! Powodzenia!
so helpful. from Hong Kong
The diminuendo exercise is very useful. Is there something similar for crescendo? Since note naturally fades how can we better connect notes in a legato with crescendo?
Crescendo is impossible..... We can only cheat using our imagination and do it in right parts of the phrases. When the phrase is well constructed, like in Chopin or Schubert, than it's easier.
OMG!!! What an amazing explanation, demonstration. I have a bit of a weird, kind of utopic imagination. I wish more teachers would be with the same attitude like you. And talking about not just the piano teachers. I say it more like generalized. People who love mathematics for example, should teach it with all of their hearth, with deepness. A car mechanic should be obsessed with cars and teach it with passion and so on. I think the attitude and the passion towards a job/profession is dying. Everyone does something but not with passion or not with deepness. The details are dying I think. And it is so sad. I think there is a japan word for passion/respect towards a profession/job, the word is: "ikigai". I love this word, I love the pure existence of it. Greg, you have "ikigai" towards the piano!!!
Thank you so much. That's beautiful.... Well, I'm crazy about piano and teaching indeed. It's my passion and I love to share it with anyone who wants to listen !
Thank you for the wonderful teaching and glad you mentioned Schubert. I am trying to find a tutorial on Schubert Sonata D568 1st movement but couldn't! This will help tremendously and if you ever are willing to do a tutorial on Schubert I will be so grateful!
I love Schubert with all my life! Ok, I'll think about that!
Schubert❤
very helpful video, i love your videos about technique, its always something to work on. How would you work on singing and legato playing if the composer provides few dynamic markings like Bach or Mozart?
I will make a video about that also!
In Bach you have to decide yourself, in Mozart consult with the singer or sing yourself
Wow, looking forward to it very much! 😊
Thank you for the amazing lecture!! Do you think this only applies to specific chopin pieces that the melody sings in, or would you roughly say this can be incoporated to all chopin pieces respectfully? Because of course not in all pieces and parts of chopin work, for example some mazurkas, the melody sings in.
Thanks !
Definitely most of the pieces!

When one sings, the air goes through the pipe steadily, continuously, no fading of the note. But on the piano, the note "dies" after the attack. So, how to "sustain"????
In your imagination and inner hearing
Hi greg, apologies for the off topic question but I have been looking for your analysis on Chopin's Mazurka Op 68 No. 3 and I can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm not even sure if it exists but if it does could you provide me with a link?
Hmmmmm, it's likely that it exists only in Polish language.... I probably have to do it in English as well
@@gregniemczuk That would be great!
The Polish Swan !
I really like your videos. Please invest in a mic system so that we can hear you better. Josh Wright piano tv on youtube has some videos on his setup that might be useful/helpful.
Thank you!!! Do you mean hearing my voice? Now I'm using in this video the highest quality of studio microphones..... For sure you can hear the piano well, can't you?
@gregniemczuk yes the piano sounds good. But your voice is not heard that well. You have such wonderful expression and energy in the way you describe the pieces that I think gets wasted by not having a proper voice microphone.
@@neshomk I could buy one, but the problem is this voice mic will also take the sound of the piano and make it worse and more flat.....
Czes Greg! How do you like my x4 new etudes? ruclips.net/p/PLYUhuuvIrJm3fK54RHGQmxs8gsSqiU0RP
Very good!
It took long for me to appreciate both nocturnes Op.62 and today they are my most loved ones. I think it`s because of the bad interpretations everywhere... for my taste at least.
Polini`s records for example in both of them are not great.
My favourites are Daniil Trifonov for No.1 and Charles Richard Hamelin for No.2.
Yes. I'm sure that was the reason!
As many nuances as possible. That's the key.
hi could you do an analysis of the nocturne no 19 in e minor?
Hi, I did one year ago already: ruclips.net/video/XGBRaZnj614/видео.html
I think only Chopins music has this. I haven't heard any other composers music that has these qualities.
The "outrageous quiet" dynamics.
Not Liszt. Not Shumann.
Chopin is the "fine-china" of music.
Maybe Schubert
